Pickle on IronPython doesn't preserve sufficient information to unpickle
floats accurately:
CPython:
>>> a = 1 /3.0
>>> import cPickle as pickle
>>> pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(a)) == a
IronPython:
>>> import cPickle as pickle
>>> a = 1 /3.0
>>> pickle.loads(pickle.dumps(a)) == a
False
This is actually causing us numerical errors in Resolver One. CPython is
actually very careful about its string representation of floats so that
this is possible.
